The blackened marquis insists that the husband should be more valuable than the son!

Xue Mingyue angrily finished a bowl of hot noodle soup.

After resting for a while, he got up and went to the yard to do some boxing. After his whole body was warmed up, he went back to the house and changed into the clothes he was wearing. He put his forehead to her and let Liu Yun wipe her sweat, and asked: "What's going on now?" What time is it?"

"Go back to Miss, it's just a moment."

"Find someone to inform the Marquis that it's time to go out."

Xue Mingyue pouted. If she hadn't gone with Xie Lang on this trip, she wouldn't have wanted to see him in the short term.

Thinking of this man always climbing into her bed in the middle of the night, her fists hardened.

The wind is blowing outside, and it's getting colder every day.

Xue Mingyue is wearing a crimson cloak, a rabbit fur scarf, and a small heater in her hand. She looks plush, and her beautiful eyebrows are still bright in winter. She is an eye-catching presence in winter. .

When Xie Lang came over, he saw this scene.

The soft-looking little girl stood beside the carriage, talking to the people around her with a smile on her face, as if even the bleak winter day had become a foil.

He curled his lips, walked forward quickly, and said softly: "It's so cold outside, why didn't you get in the car first? I'll be here soon, so there's no need to wait outside for me."

"..." Xue Mingyue rolled her eyes, who was waiting for him?

She emphasized: "I have just arrived and I am just explaining some things to them. Mr. Marquis does not want to put money on his face for everything."

Xie Lang glanced at the maid beside her, and didn't say whether she believed it or not. She just nodded and said, "Okay, have you finished explaining your affairs? How about we get in the carriage? The Xue Mansion has already made arrangements."

After saying that, he raised his eyebrows and said jokingly: "By the way, does the mutton cake this morning taste good?"

Xue Mingyue: "..."

·

Most of the places where court officials lived were in a few alleys.

Dingyuan Hou Mansion is also nearby. It only takes about two-quarters of an hour to go to Xue Mansion by carriage. However, Xie Lang specifically asked the coachman to take a detour to a busy market, so the trip lasted about half an hour.

Xue Mingyue could hear the lively shouting from outside while staying in the carriage.

From time to time, she lifted the curtains and took a look outside. She watched with interest what Yongji City looked like as the New Year was approaching, and wondered what she could buy next time she went out.

Zhuangzi is more than quiet but not lively enough.

Xue Mingyue still prefers excitement. If she really wants to hide in the mountains and forests to hide from the world, she will definitely die of discomfort first. It's hard not to say that she would choose to move to Suzhou City. One of the reasons is that the city is much more lively.

Xie Lang's eyelashes were slightly curved, and there was always a faint smile on his lips.

No matter how slowly the carriage moved, it had to leave the street in the end.

Xue Mingyue had no choice but to put down the curtain with regret. The look of reluctance on her face made Xie Lang feel extremely happy and said with a smile: "When we come back from Xue Mansion, we will pass by here again. You can visit as long as you want."

She shook her head: "No need."

It was better to keep a low profile during this period. She cried like that in front of Emperor Jing Ping, as if she had received a huge blow. In the blink of an eye, she went out shopping, which aroused suspicion.

"Seriously?" Xie Lang raised his eyebrows.

"The Grassland Mission will arrive today. I will be busy with official duties starting tomorrow and will not be able to take you out to play anymore."

Xue Mingyue crossed her arms and said angrily: "Master Hou, I am not three years old. I just went out to play and I can't lose it. Besides, there are so many guards in the Hou Mansion to protect me."

Seeing that he was about to speak again, she quickly reached out to stop him.

"Besides, I'm still angry right now, so please don't talk to me again."

After saying that, she turned her head and closed her eyes.

Xie Lang suddenly laughed.

He raised his hand and touched his nose. He knew that climbing through the window in the middle of the night would not be easy to get over. It was best to follow her wishes now, so he did not speak again. For a while, there were only two overlapping breathing sounds in the carriage. .

The silence in the carriage didn't last long, and the voice of Wu Ye, who was acting as the coachman, came in: "Master Marquis, Madam, the Xue Mansion has arrived."

Xie Lang got off the carriage first.

When Xue Mingyue came out of the carriage, he stretched out his hand towards her.

She hesitated for a moment, then stretched out her hand from between the cloak and placed it on his. Her soft hand touched the big, sharp-jointed palm. The moment she noticed the coolness, she retracted her hand, but the next moment she was touched by him again. He held it without hesitation.

Xie Lang led her down and then led her towards Xue's mansion.

Xue Mansion has now been surrounded by Jinwu Guards, and no one can enter even half a step unless they show their token.

"That day, I took Tang Kun and others back to Beijing in advance. After returning, I sealed off all the houses, including Tang's Mansion. Xue's Mansion was also among them, but the guards were unable to find any useful evidence."

"This is the reason why Xue Xujun has never been sentenced."

Xie Lang spoke in a calm tone.

Xue Mingyue hummed absently, her mind focused on the hand holding her. The fingertips of martial arts practitioners are covered with calluses of varying thickness. When holding delicate hands, they will always be roughened a few times.

She was a little uncomfortable, her eyes wandering.

After a while, he remembered to ask: "What about Lin and Xue Rou?"

The Xue Mansion was sealed, Xue Xujun was imprisoned, and everyone in the Lin family was also arrested. Where were the wives, concubines, and children in the mansion?

"At first, when the Xue Mansion was not sealed, they were still living here. Later, it was discovered that Xue Xujun and Xiao Duo were secretly forming a clique for personal gain. I expected that his guilt was not small, so I will sever ties with the Xue family on your behalf, and the others followed suit. "

"Your concubines and concubines were divorced very happily, and they moved away after the separation."

When Xie Lang talked about this, the corners of his lips curled up mockingly.

Xue Mingyue couldn't help but raise her eyebrows when she thought of the scene of the tree falling down and the hozen scattered: "But logically speaking, the Xue family should be implicated..."

"Yes, so they took advantage of you."

Xie Lang nodded without hesitation: "As Mrs. Dingyuanhou, this matter will not implicate you, but you want to break off your relationship with Xue Xujun, so I will break it off for you on the pretext that I will not be implicated. They have The purpose of following the same example is to clear the air."

He said calmly: "Those who can leave are those with clean hands. Those who are unclean have already been sent to prison."

In his previous life, he was able to kill hundreds of people in the entire Xue Mansion. Naturally, he would not be merciful in this life and would let them go. He just didn't want her to think he was cruel and unkind.

Therefore, it is not wrong to say that they benefited from half of it.

Xue Mingyue sighed. When she heard this, her mood was not as complicated as she expected. Instead, she remembered the scene in her previous life when she knelt in front of the Xue Mansion in a torrential rain and begged them for mercy.

She lowered her eyelids and stared at the embroidered shoes in trance.

Xue Xujun didn't see her, so she kept kneeling at the door and watching the people coming and going. Even Xue Rou, who was married outside, rushed back to humiliate her. No one in the house reached out to her to help.

It was then that she became completely disillusioned with Xue Mansion.
